Thanks, Gail and Roger! In reality this snake was over 6ft long so you're probably right, Roger :-) #2752975Noel Baebler May 13, 2006
Coooool composition, Steve! Not a fan of the snake, though. Better your driveway than mine, :0) #2760771Steve Mescha May 13, 2006
LOL Noel! I don't especially like to handle them but I LOVE looking at snakes. Yesterday I met a very large Copperhead on my drive home and he kindly posed for photos :-) #2761016Laurence Saliba July 25, 2006

I remember commenting on this but it looks like cyber space ate it. So this may be a little late, but it's sincere...Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
